A program for filling up the missing part of protein structure

#GalaxyFill: A program for filling up the missing part of protein structure

##0. Remark The GalaxyFill distribution version supports only Linux 64-bit OS and binary files compiled with serial option. Linux 32-bit OS or binary files compiled with MPI option are not supported.

##1. Installation

  1. Download the GalaxyFill program
    • Download a copy of GalaxyFill
    • https://github.com/seoklab/GalaxyFill
    • https://github.com/seoklab/GalaxyFill/archive/master.zip * Or, clone the GalaxyFill git repository
    • git clone https://github.com/seoklab/GalaxyFill.git
  2. Unzip and place the downloaded files
    • unzip GalaxyFill.zip
    • mv GalaxyFill $GALAXY_HOME
      (example: GALAXY_HOME=/applic/GalaxyFill)
  3. Check the downloaded files
    • There should exist:
    • bin: directory for executables
      There should be build_initial_model and GalaxyFill
    • data: directory for data files
    • examples: directory for example files
  4. Set environment variable
    • export GALAXY_HOME=$GALAXY_HOME
      (example: export GALAXY_HOME=/applic/GalaxyFill)

##2. How to use GalaxyFill

  1. Prepare the input protein structure in PDB format
    • You have to provide a protein structure in the PDB file format for structure refinement. Gaps (or chain breaks) are highly prohibited in the middle of the initial protein structure.
  2. Run GalaxyFill
    • Usage: $GALAXY_HOME/bin/GalaxyFill [-h] [-p INPUT PDB File] [-s INPUT FASTA File]
    • Input arguments and options:
    • -p or –pdb : Input protein structure file in PDB format (mendatory)
    • -s or –seq : Input protein sequence file in FASTA format (mendatory)
    • -o or –out : Output protein structure file name (optional, default=${Input PDB prefix}_fill.pdb)
    • -t or –title : Running title for GalaxyFill (optional, default=${Input PDB prefix})
  3. Output of GalaxyFill
    • The final refined model will be ${Input PDB prefix}_fill.pdb or designated by “-o/–out” option
